Monday April 25, 2022 We had a great week this week. We went through our area book and cleaned up some things. We also had some great finds and conversations with people on the street. We went on 3 exchanges this week and I enjoyed all of them. I'm also very excited for this coming weekend to hear from Elder Uchtdorf! I've been trying to prepare for that this coming week. I'm just consistently trying to be better and do better. There's so many things I want to work on and I feel I'm not doing great on it, but little by little I know I'll get there. Solid week nonetheless so no complaints here! For the spiritual experience this week it was when we went contacting with a member from our ward. To give some background, that morning we set a goal to find someone who wants to have an eternal family. Throughout the day we we were praying to find that someone. That night as we went out with a member we went street contacting. We had a great conversation with one gentlem...

 Monday April 18, 2022 This week has been a busy one for sure! Elder Quigley and I have gotten along very well. He's a hard worker and desires to do good. He's very fun to work with. We've been able to keep up with all the office work we needed to do and still help people have a spiritual expereinece at the pageant. We went to the Pageant multiple times and had many spiritual experiences. We also had dinner with some friends named Don and Mia on Sunday. Elder Bird and I found them a couple weeks ago as we were in an apartment complex. They had a whole truck to unload with no one to help, so we helped them unload and move him. After we helped them they invited us over for dinner. So yesterday we go back to have dinner and we taught the Restoration. It went very well! They are more "spiritual people" but by the end they accepted the Book of Mormon and were excited to read it. It was a success! The rest of the week was good as well. We enjoyed speaking with all the n...

 Monday April 12, 2022 Hey everyone! It was a good week for us! Our P-Day is today because we went on a Temple trip today and that was a great experience. So Thursday is transfers, so this past week has been busy getting everything ready. Elder Quigley joined our companionship so we're in a trio until transfers and then Elder Bird will leave the area and Elder Quigley and I are new companions. Elder Quigley will probably be my last companion on the mission! Crazy how time just flies. Nothing else too exciting. We're just trying to get everyone to the Easter Pageant and unfortunately everyone is canceling. Hopefully we'll go tonight. We also had a pretty cool event we went to. It was an interfaith event and we set up a booth and people just walked around and learned about a ton of religions. So we got to represent the Church of Jesus Christ as 2 20 year old guys haha. It was really cool!  For the spiritual experience this week it was during an event with the Citrus Heights S...
